Currently, there is an undetermined number of surgical patients infected with coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) due to the fact that its spread has been carried out at an unprecedented speed, for which reason the surgical areas have had to be reinforced. In the context of viral transmission risk procedures, the surgical team does not escape the high risk of contagion due to infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The epidemiology of surgical pathologies will always have their prevalence, even in times of pandemic. A non-systematic review of the recommendations for the perioperative management of the COVID-19 patient published to date was carried out in order to organize and integrate the information regarding the perioperative management of the COVID-19 surgical patient in order to systematize the same language. adapted to the individual needs of each institution with the particularity of basing the management of this type of patients in 10 steps and thus safeguarding the integrity and protection of both health personnel and the patient himself.
